Introduction

This widget is an other visualisation of a Slider. It represents an integer value which is in a range of data.

Important: This widget is currently horizontal. If you need a vertical slider, please fill a bug with Bugzilla

Usage

The usage is very simple :

• You create a NebulaSlider widget
• You set the minimum value, the maximum value and the value with the appropriate setters (setMinimum(), setMaximum() and setValue()).
• You can add a SelectionListener with the method addSelectionListener(). The selection event is fired when the user changes the selection.

final NebulaSlider slider = new NebulaSlider(shell, SWT.NONE);
slider.setMinimum(0);
slider.setMaximum(1000);
slider.setValue(632);
slider.setBackground(display.getSystemColor(SWT.COLOR_WHITE));

slider.addSelectionListener(new SelectionAdapter() {
     @Override
     public void widgetSelected(SelectionEvent e) {
          System.out.println("New value is " + slider.getValue());
     }
});
